The noble gases have completely filled orbitals and are hence generally stable and chemically inert. The halogens need one more electron to complete octet and are generally highly reactive.

Is a fluorine a noble gas?

Noble gases are, for all intents and purposes, unreactive - there are a few noble gas compounds but you have to really work at it to convince noble gases to form bonds. Fluorine is an extremely reactive gas, hence it is not a noble gas. It is a halogen - the most reactive halogen of them all.


Is iodine a noble gas?

No, iodine is not a noble gas. Iodine belongs to the halogen group in the periodic table, which contains elements that are highly reactive. Noble gases are a separate group of elements that are inert and do not readily combine with other elements.
